I think Nolan, Linklater, Iñárritu and Tyldum seem very very likely right now. The fifth spot is up for grabs between Miller, Jolie, Eastwood, Fincher and Burton.

Yeah, Fincher's out. Eastwood FTW!

I'm beginning to think this category will have an oddball nomination, a la Benh Zeitlin.

Yep. I think Linklater is winning it as well.

I can't imagine a third BP/BD-split in a row. If Linklater wins, Boyhood will also win.

Wait, where the hell did Clint Eastwood come from here?! I thought Algren was thinking he would get in for Jersey Boys. I had no idea he was directing American Sniper.

Wow, I'm seriously shocked. The man is in his 80s. Slow down, Clint.

He's certainly slowed down in quality.

A really competitive category. Linklater, Iñárritu, and Tyldum look to be locks (although there is really no lock in this category after what happened a couple of years ago), and Duvernay looks very strong given her film's reviews, then you still have Fincher/Jolie/Eastwood. Think Nolan is pretty much certain to not getting nominated though.

I don't know if Tyldum is such a lock. He is not overdue, it's a relative newcomer and has done mostly TV work. I did like Headhunters, but as you said, if Affleck and Bigelow didn't get nominated a couple of years ago, who knows what will happen.

Right now I see Linklater, Iñarritu and Duvernay in. Tyldum almost there and Fincher, Eastwood, Marsh and the big unknown, Jolie, fighting for the last spot.

Hopefully Nolan wins.

Yeah after the Affleck/Bigelow fiasco, it has become pretty much impossible to call anything a lock here. EVER.
